Description

Calcium pyrophosphate is a compound that is used in the diagnosis and treatment of chronic arthritis. It has been shown to induce caspase-independent cell death and inhibit the proliferation of fibroblasts. Calcium pyrophosphate also inhibits nuclear DNA fragmentation and caspases, which are proteins that are involved in apoptosis. This drug has a structural analysis that shows it to be a crystalline compound with a molecular weight of 622.6 Da. The crystals are composed of two calcium ions, two phosphate ions, one pyrophosphate ion, and three water molecules. Calcium pyrophosphate is biocompatible and can be used as a coating for medical implants because it does not cause any inflammation or organ rejection.
